Ways to Give
There are many ways to give:
- Online
- Cash
- Annual fund
- Planned giving
- Corporate & Foundation gifts
- Matching gifts
- Faculty & staff giving
The benefits of giving start with the personal satisfaction of making a difference. There are financial benefits as well. Outright gifts to CLA (cash, annual fund and online contributions) are tax-deductible. (You can claim charitable deductions up to 50 percent of your adjusted gross income for gifts of cash in the year you make the gift. Excess deductions may be carried over for up to 5 years.)
Other kinds of gifts—including stocks, bequests, life insurance and annuities—can provide estate or capital gains tax benefits, or income for you or your beneficiaries.
The University of Minnesota recognizes donors whose lifetime giving totals $25,000 with membership in the Presidents Club, and those who give annually at levels of $1,000 or more as Maroon & Gold Partners.
